Enjoy the Timeless Appeal of a Showa-Era Noragi Jacket in Everyday Life

Traditional Japanese cotton outerwear with striped pattern

This striped cotton noragi jacket, crafted from the early to mid-Showa period, reflects the life and resourcefulness of its time and is far more than a simple work garment. The finely striped front and plain back blend naturally with modern casual styles, adding subtle individuality to any outfit.

In rural Japan, it was common to piece together available fabric to make clothing, and this jacket follows that tradition. The fabric remains firm yet will gradually adapt to the body, allowing you to enjoy its evolving texture and character over time.

Internationally, noragi and vintage Japanese fabrics are gaining recognition as “Japan Vintage,” often incorporated into daily wear and layered outfits. This jacket connects past and present, bringing depth to contemporary fashion.

Simply draping it over your shoulders can subtly transform the atmosphere of your look. Embrace the past through this garment and experience the unique charm of its fabric and history.
